Active restore Windows PE

Thread needs solution

Hi,

We have deploted 2013 and plus pack across several machines on both Win 7 / Pro / Ultimate and XP Sts & Pro.

Do I need to create a winpe restore disk for each individual machine or is it sufficient to do one for Xp and one for Win 7?

A single WinPE 3.0/3.1 (Windows 7 / Windows 7 SP1) based Recovery Media can be used with any of the systems, regardless of the OS installed. You may need to add additional drivers to the WinPE based media if you have any hardware that is not supported with the default Windows 7 drivers included in the PE environment.

In most cases, the same WinPE disk will work on any machine, regardless of the OS. In rare cases, you might need to inject additional drivers in your WinPE image to accommodate some hardware component.
More recent WinPE (Win8, Win7) will support more recent hardware out of the box.
